Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
1/19
Skied at Vail on Tuesday and Keystone yesterday. Took today off because I woke up with a sore throat and killer headache. Feel a lot better now so will be back on the slopes tomorrow. Interesting conversation about "fuel" for endurance events. There is a fellow named Phil Maffetone who writes a lot about training your body to burn fat for fuel. His premise is that we all have a lot more energy available stored as fat than we do glycogen. A serious triathlete I know told me that about half the folks in his triathlon club in Calgary are proponents of Maffetone's approach and the other half think it is witchcraft. :rofl: [url]https://philmaffetone.com[/url] (WFS) After reading his material and other writings about eating a lower carb diet, I've started eating that way and have noticed I don't bonk anymore on long bicycle rides. (and I dropped about 10 pounds and 3" off my waist) |

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
Hey Gents- Great work as usual. Have not been able to post for the past week of so due to "life events". My father-in-law passed last week, he made it to 91 so a good life for him although his body has been failing him the past few years. Mind Strong. My wife is managing, she was at his side with her 7 other brother/sisters and grandkids. So he did not die alone which he feared. Also been very busy working with my brothers and sister moving my mom and her horsed about 150 miles north of me. I've missed a week+ of X-Fit, but have had tons of functional movement!!

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
Bill- Burpee Box jumps are tuff!! your mind is really working after a "crash" on the box like you had. Better go 20" or less.... steps ups maybe. I do it all the time.
Cliff- Thank you, I hope to make to 91 too!! Great job on the 10K rowing. Once my Hip feels better I'm going to give it a shot. Maybe 5K first :D 1/25/2017 Did Yoga Class this evening. Worked on breathing and we did some balance stuff too. Signed up for 10 more sessions. Going to give Yoga a 15 session "try" I just relax when they start hummming.......not that far into it.:notworth: |

Great work, Guys!
@Patrick - Very sorry to hear about your father-in-law. My condolences to your family. @Cliff - Hang in there; we are rooting for you. Enjoy your time in Mexico; that should be a great break. Agree with Jan's comment about getting your testosterone checked. You might also consider vitamin D supplementation. Numerous articles on the web about relationship between low vitamin D and depression. Mercola, Vitamin D Council, Dr. Weil, etc. Given where you live, you aren't getting any from the sun these days. I know that for sure since the sun only just got high enough on the horizon a few days ago to get vitamin D here in CO. For those of you who remember him, JT Kalnay died a year ago. I got a reminder today from the tributes website where we were able to offer condolences to his family. The sore throat and bad headache from last week turned out to be a sinus infection. The good news is that I only missed two days of skiing. 18 days on the slopes so far and have skied at five different resorts. The lessons have been very helpful. I'm learning how to use technique instead of leg strength to move around the mountain. As a result, I'm a lot less tired at the end of the day. Jan was less than amused the other day when I told her I wanted to do another run after we finished our lesson. :) |

Jan- You are in BEAST MODE doing a 1/2 Marathon on the Rowwer!!! I've yet to try 10K. I spent the past Satuday being a Judge as our Box had its 1st Competition. That is we had paying customers doing a 4WOD Comp. It was cool and at the end of the day I was so tired I thought I had done the Comp.!! Each was 2Min long with only 2Min. rest between each round. So 37Min each. I think I judged 7 Teams. I was there from 7:30am to 5pm.
